'It's him or Parker. Wilder is still out there and I've put out a tweet to put him straight after that video that I've seen him do. It's between the three of them, it's definitely between the three of them, without a doubt.

WBO world heavyweight champion Joseph Parker is unbeaten in 23 fights as a professional

'There is unfinished business with Haye, but in all honesty, I love the thought of becoming heavyweight champion of the world, so my preference will be Parker.'

Bellew, 34, said in the wake of his victory over Haye that he was considering hanging up his gloves.

But having decided to fight on, a clash with Parker would give 'Bomber' the chance to become a two-weight world champion.

The New Zealand fighter is undefeated in 23 professional fights and nine years Bellew's junior. But he laboured to victory over Razvan Cojanu last time out and is widely considered the most beatable of the current world heavyweight champions.
